It was only a matter of announcing it
This morning's first post mentioned the castro/Chavez deal to build a shipyard in Zulia state in Venezuela. Now it seems Venezuelan armed forces - including armored vehicles, helicopters and troops - have been sent to the exact same area to quell "sabotage to oil productions" reported by the Chavez government.
Of course, to those inexperienced with the modus operandi of fidel castro and his revolution, the sending of the Venezuelan Army to the area seems like a perfectly logical manuever. However, if youre familiar with the political machinations of fidel castro you know this is just another step in the process of usurping control away from the people - be they Cuban or Venzuelan.
In January of this year, Chavez announced an agreement with fidel castro that extended police powers in Venezuela to Cuban security agents. That was just a formality, really, as Cuban security agents had been operating in Venezuela for years disguised as "diplomats" and doctors.
It isnt just coincidence that the two dictators announce an agreement of sorts one day and then lo and behold the military has to be mobilized to the exact same area the next. It's not happenstance. It's all meticulously planned.
It is inconceivable that given castro's genius for state security and dare I say espionage, he simply overlooked the situation with the oil workers in Zulia. Cuba's security and intelligence is bar none the best in the world, better than the KGB and Stasi. They not only knew what was happening in Zulia, but I can assure you they instigated it. It's all a little too convenient.
Besides, nothing gets passed fidel and his G2 henchmen. Nothing.

According to EU press, Chavez legally won the elections (no tricks), and it was the US backing (also financially) right wing opposition to get him away from the presidential seat.
Either EU or US press is lying.
US defending and actively promoting freeedom in the whole world. Occasionally bombing who doesn't accept it.
EU, instead, is a cove of communists who sometimes play the role of nazis and fascists. So EU press is lying. I'm sure about it!

Castro didn't die soon enough. Now he's got a starter kit in south america.

And the modus operandi is the same, remember that the American refineries in Cuba were nationalized after fidelito accused the americans of refusing to process oil and deliver it. That was an orchestrated and well executed ploy too.
